New tires and some predator hunting

I put a 4 in lift in last summer and the old 31in tires looked kinda silly. I put on some 255 85 16 (33in) trailcutter rt and I think they look pretty good. I've always loved the look of Tall skinny tires on these old trucks, but this size is hard to come by.
I figured I'd better try them out this morning so I went out and did some coyote calling. The tires worked great in the snow and also had some luck hunting

Looks good! I'm curious about the gun. What model, caliber, scope? How long are your shots?

Thanks for replies! As for the rifle I had it custom built on a Remington action. It's a 6x47 Lapua with a luepold 4.5x14 vxiii. I shoot anywhere from 50 to 500yrds. These three I called them in and shot them from about 130yrds.

Nice! My wife just got me Nikon Monarch and I'm looking forward to some longer range shooting.
The truck, coyotes, and gun makes for a good picture.
